Syria Travel Guide
Syria's Mediterranean coast, with its backdrop of the rugged Ansariyal Mountains, stretches for just 180km. Here the port city of Latakia is a favoured summer destination and an ideal base for one and two-day excursions to Crac des Chevalier - a remarkable crusader's castle, the ancient city Ugarit, the basilica of St. Simeon and Saladin's Cidatel, set on a wooded ridge surrounded by menacing ravines. The mountains stretch southward, along the border with Lebanon, and here the River Barada rises, bringing life into the arid region in which the city of Damascus has survived for over 2000 years. A city that boasts unique blends of ancient and modern; bustling traditional markets, magnificent Islamic architecture and modern, western-style commerce. Out in the country's central desert lies the amazing sight of the Roman ruins of Palmyra, a magical experience not to be missed.
